Yearning for Peace (a song)

Put hands together
Petition, praise, pray
For peace and compassion
Together, today.

Put hands together
Petition, praise, pray
For peace and compassion
Now and always.

Yearning for peace
Where there is strife.
Let anger subside
Into silence
Nurturing prayers
In quiet reflection
Nations rejoice in
Thanks for peace.

Far-off countries
Over this earth
Rejoicing for peace.

Put hands together…
Everywhere…
And be…
Content on this…
Earth…as we are meant
…As we are meant.

Chorus
Be content, as we are meant…
